ok i need some help here. i was finally able to get out and work on this truck this weekend. the piston in the hh was moving but not every much so i pulled it apart when i got it off the little button on the bottom and the clip that holds it on were just sitting in the bottom. I got it all put back together and the piston moved fine now but the truck still would not run so i ended up swapping out the whole injector pump with another pump the guy had and it still doesnt run. im in the exact same place as i was when i started there is fuel at the pump just nothing getting to the injectors. i know everything is timed right. i dont know what the chance of this other pump he had being bad. can someone please help me out here.

The solvent he dumped in most likely ruined the injection head anyway. Swap out the section and hope for the best. Its a shame the TM section failed, it was a great resource.

We had a re-power program in the mid eighties and swapped out a bunch of these trucks both deuce & five tons to the multi-fuel engines. Are you sure you have fuel at the pump. Did you check the fuel shut off,

swigs84

there is deffinatly fuel to the pump. fuel shut off is working like it should

the TM is kind of confusing on this.....is the red tooth suppose to be lined up with the pointer or one tooth to the right of the pointer. first it says line up the marks on the hub and just make sure the red tooth can be seen then goes down and says it needs to be lined up and then another part says one tooth to the right. the way i have it timed now the red tooth is lined up with the pointer

The pointer should be in the "valley" of the tooth, not the point. Not much difference, but might effect timing.

well after taking two junk injector pumps and trying to make one good one i finally got the thing running, only problem is its running at wide open throttle so now i have to take the governor off the other pump and put on this one.....hopefully i can do it with the pump still in the truck i really dont want to take that thing out again. Thanks for all of you guys help with this pile of junk

well after swapping out the governor section of the pump i got it running well enough to drive it to my house to try and fix some of the rest of the stuff wrong with it.....a lot of fun with no brakes AT ALL. I should of never said i would work on this truck it is in pretty sorry shape, it has deffinatly been used hard. after driving it the 1/4 mile to my house it blew out both oil filter gaskets. someone has rigged up the fuel system pretty bad....nothing hooked up on the drivers side tank at all........just runs off of an inline 12v pump off the passenger side tank right now which is wired up with house wire. there is a BUNCH of water in the oil which i dont know is from sitting for so long or if it blew a head gasket the first time i got it to start and it went straight to wide open throttle. not a single gauge in the truck works. for some reason i kind of enjoy working on this thing though haha
